Your opportunity to have the best of all worlds commute to work and have a rural lifestyle at home can be found at this property at Kilmainhan at Mt Jagged. The infrastructure is in place, the permaculture garden planted, and there are opportunities to make a supporting income if required.
The land – At 52.1Ha (approx 129 acres), this property lies within the heart of the beautiful Fleurieu Peninsula. Activities of the region include golf, surfing, dive sites, sailing, bush and coastal walking trails and even whale watching off Middleton Beach. Or you may be attracted to the nearby wineries and restaurants. It is little wonder that the Fleurieu is considered to be one of Adelaides most accessible and favourite play grounds. This stunning property is central to all the activity and located approximately 8km south of the small community of Mount Compass, 17km north of Victor Harbor and approximately 50 minutes drive to Adelaide CBD.
This visually striking property is undulating in nature and attractively dotted with areas of remnant scrub plus some mature shelter belts around a creek winding its way through the lower paddocks. The land is fertile grey loam over iron stone with patches of peat on the lower paddocks and is well managed with consistently good pasture production supported by a sound fertilizer history.
The infrastructure – The outstanding farm infrastructure is well maintained. Presently the property is divided into 10 main paddocks with laneways with water supplied via dams and troughs. The excellent shedding includes a 30m x 8m industrial style shed which is divided into 3 bays that incorporate vehicle parking, fully lockable workshop with power and lighting with an implement/hay storage section. Other structures include the second iron clad hay shed centrally located within the property, a cement block garage/storage shed approx 11m x 6m and stock yards with crush, loading ramp and under cover show preparation area.
While located in one of South Australias highest rainfall areas, additional water is provided by an excellent bore in both quality and quantity with an approximate 11.69 Meg water licence. Two concrete tanks, one 125,000 litres gravity feeds stock watering points in most paddocks and another 10,000 litres tank supplies the home.
Your rural home – Is a substantial 1950s solid brick homestead with large rooms set amongst sweeping lawns and beautiful English deciduous garden trees giving the property an exceptional street appeal. A safe back yard, an established orchard, vegetable garden, and kennels complete the home based facilities. The property has been home to two stud cattle operations and currently operates a cattle finishing business using the Mt Compass sale yards a short distance away.
Kilmainhan is in an excellent high rainfall district, has quality infrastructure and is a pleasure to present it to those seeking the benefits of a rural property while retaining employment in Adelaide or the nearby southern suburbs. An Information Memorandum is available upon request.
